How the chuff do you remove the ashtray?

I cant make it out if its part of the centre console bit but i need it out to access the wires for the cigarette lighter as im using that for the power cables for my boost gauge

Cheers

Its just a case of pulling it up isn't it? :shrug: Shouldn't be any more complicated than that, and if it turns out that it is then its a poor design lol

Well the actual tray itself comes out by pulling up but i want the whole thing out because i cant remove the cigarette lighter socket.

Its such a pain in the ass lol

Go around the side, peel back some carpet and trim and the cables are lurking up there.

The ashtray is spot welded onto the console, so you cant get access to the wires without taking the console out, quite easy tbh
